<p>A material which binds specifically with a target material is characterised in that the specific binding material has areas upon its surface which correspond to the 'size and/or shape' (as defined in the application) of said target material. The target may be a microorganism, antibody or antigen. Preferaably, the microorganism is a bacterium, fungus, protozoan or virus, most preferably a bacterium, as exemplified by Listeria monocytogenes . The specific binding material may be prepared by binding the target material to the surface of the binding material, whereby the surface of the binding material is adapted to the size and/or shape of the target material, followed by removal of the target material from the surface.</p> |
